Nice! That's going to be very useful when learning a new topic/technology
How are the hits ranked? I imagine just time? Do you have a list of all sources you used?
How are the hits ranked? I imagine just time? Do you have a list of all sources you used?
1. Is the publisher of the talk good? (whitelist)
2. Is the talk referenced in social media (e.g. HN)
3. Safe for work (i.e. you could use in a lunch and learn)
4. Length (15-50 minutes preferred)
5. Is the speaker a keynote level speaker?
6. Are there closed captions? Can the video be embedded?
7. How often does the speaker say 'um' (or similar)
8. Is the talk in English (there are some in Russian and Arabic, but only small collections)
9. Are there notable audio quality issues (channel balance)
10. If it's a historic talk, older talks get higher ranking
11. If it's a technical talk, these get lower ranking, unless you filter to that
12. Is the speaker influential enough to have a wikipedia article?
13. Has the speaker written books?
14. What is the role of the institution that sponsored the talk (conferences are neutral, think tanks, etc lose some ranking)
